Not that it isn't a sort of tautology and as such is any surprise, but dang! The slavers were a menace. Violent, greedy, entitled fucks.
Nice overview, but incomplete. This older «middle ground» scholarship lacks integration of economics on a structural history axis, particularly the early history of US economy in the north as a sort of hinterland of Caribbean and South US plantation slavery. Slavery was no adjunct.
